Coach Jhovon heggie

I began training in the sport of boxing at 12 years old under Coach Rick Burns at Blue Corner Boxing gym in chandler Arizona. This gym produced two world champions the year I joined and allowed me to lose over 70 pounds, saving me from obesity. Over the years I trained consistently and was taught not only how to box but as a father figure Rick Burns took me on as an apprentice in the craft of mittwork, training, and coaching fighters. After a long successful career Coach Rick Burns had to step down due to health issues and the gym eventually closed after his passing.

While continuing to coach fighters and train in boxing I began in Judo at age 20 becoming a two time state champion and Jack bradford champion while earning my black belt. For three years I was the head boxing coach at Orlando Brazilian Jiu jitsu  earning the position of general manager before moving on to pursue my dream of opening my own gym. In the more than 2 decades of experience in boxing I had the opportunity to work with amateur boxers, professional boxers, Mixed martial artists, kickboxers, and Muay Thai fighters. Now this well-rounded experience is being shared at Blu Corner Boxing gym. 

" I strive every day to be as great as the bravest person I have ever met and my hero... Mom."
